Industrial CAN bus communication design based on LabVIEW
1、Wuhan University of Technology
Abstract:LabVIEW is a kind of Virtual Instruments Development Platform that is developed by National Instruments Corporation.It adopts the graphic programming language,and can provide lots of instrument driver programs for users together with powerful functions of human-computer interface design and data analysis and processing,users can establish flexsible and reliable application system quickly with it,so LabVIEW is widely used in control system development.This paper presents the introduction of VI technology into the industrial control system, and combines VI technology with field bus CAN.By adding a RS232/CAN converter,it implements application-level data communication, packing the down-transmission CAN message and separating message between the host-computer application system and the monitoring function modules. The host-computer application system of CAN bus can be quickly and effectively developed with this method that introduced in this paper.
